Its now official he will not testify next week. But he could be made to if congress forces him to.

O.K. so... if the two events are *NOT* related why can't he testify. This has something to do with Libya. It could have everything to do with Libya. I'm on the case about it now, $#@! this. 4 Americans died and they're trying to cover it up.
If Gen. Petraeus does not testify, the two are absolutely related. Why else wouldn't he testify?

I sit beside the fire and think
Of people long ago
And people who will see a world
That I shall never know

Perfectly timed resignation, "scheduling conflict".......Four grieving families will never know the extent of the fecklessness that led to their son's/father's/brother's/husband's death....all to protect the most despicable piece of Chicago thuggery $#@! that's ever sat behind the Oval Office desk
